Blueray disc play question

RStar · 12-29-2008, 12:47 AM

With my old DVD player I could stop a movie, then start it back up later where I left off. With my new Samsung Blueray it starts the movie back from the begining. Some DVD players I had in the past would ask "resume" or "Play". But I can't for the life of me figure out how to "Resume" on this thing. Is it me, Samsung, or can bluerays just not do that?

My ps3 starts where you left off for Blurays/DVDs, so it might be your player (or a setting in your player). If it isn't in your manual, I would call Samsung tech support.

Thanks Churny. I just may do that. I checked and it doesn't mention it in the manual and I went through every setting on the player. Next I need to check if it's the movie. I'll try a different disc. Then I may give them a call.

I need to call the Harmonie people to get my remote set up right also.....

Where are you located, RStar?

I might be able to help with the Harmony.

Did you know that you can even eject the disc, and when you put it back in, it will pick up where the movie left off? I like that.

Garden Grove, Chapman and Brookhurst. My biggest problem is that when it asked me which channel do I put it on when I watch TV, the options were Channel 3 and one or two others. Well, I don't put it on a channel, I put it on an input. And that wasn't one of the options. Plus it only had a 6 input option and I have like 9. I don't think they have the info on my TV correct on their website. So i was going to try to reprogram it again and see if I can figure it out, or perhaps they updated my TV info on the website by now (It's been a couple of months now).

Yeah, it should. I've been able to do that, but not with this Blueray player. Hince my problem. And it's rather annoying...

Try using pause instead of stop. Or check to see if you're hitting stop more than once.

That's real useful for those "Gladiator Movies"... you know, the ones you only watch for about 3 mins...

I did, but I took longer than expected and came back after 15 min to find it had stopped. But that's not even the point, realy. I should be able to stop, remove the disc even, and still have the chance to "resume" play I would think. Thanks for the tip, however.
